CHANGE OF GUARDS
"..........You cannot lecture me on working for Uganda. We fought for no pay for many years and when we won we have been working for low pay all this while. These soldiers have been fighting for no pay or low pay. Why do they never go on strike? A doctor who goes on strike is not a Doctor. He is an enemy of our people and we shall treat him as such."
Museveni - Labour Day speech. May 1, 2018
For three decades since Museveni took power, the country has witnessed some of the biggest financial scandals in the security sector. From flawed procurements, diversion of supplies, outright theft of cash and logistics, and creation of ghost soldiers, senior security officers have been implicated.
On 28th March 2018 this website ran a related article titled; OF OBOTE'S THIEVING UNLA AND MUSEVENI'S PILLAGING NRA. No single security officer has ever been held accountable or made to refund the loot. Senior security officers have been implicated in outright armed robbery involving billions of cash, aiding of drug trafficking, theft of contraband exhibits worth billions like cocaine and ivory, land grabbing, kidnappings and forced return of refugees to foreign countries for pay, direct smuggling and aiding of smuggling, and many other economic crimes.
For that reason, and therefore, senior security officers have accumulated so much wealth that they are among the topmost wealthy citizens of Uganda. Moreover, it is his Bush War comrades who were among the top beneficiaries of his privatisation of national parastatals scheme. By keeping a blind eye on illegal accumulation of wealth, Museveni has managed to tame his security officers into personal loyalty. Actually, some senior security officers who have refrained from illegal accumulation of wealth have been branded as keeping a clean record for political ambitions.
For the junior security personnel, it is the deployment in peace keeping operations that has helped address their plight. A few of them have been involved in petty theft, robberies, illegal escort of contraband, selling of ammunitions and other logistics, and soliciting for small bribes to make ends meet. The recent record breaking desertion of 3,000 police officers is a living testimony.
Therefore, Museveni is as usual attempting to dupe Ugandans. His senior security officers have stolen so much from Ugandans that they are not building castles and palaces as their countryside homes. Gen. Joram Mugume who is the Chairman of the Military Land Board is suing Nakasero hospital for a three month rent default of 200m per month yet his monthly salary is slightly above one million shillings!!!!!
INFORMATION IS POWER AND THE PROBLEM OF UGANDA IS MUSEVENISM
